Answer:
pH is an index of how many protons, or hydrogen ions (H+) are dissolved and free in a solution. The pH scale goes from 0 to 14. A fluid with a pH of 7 is neutral. Below 7, it is acidic; above 7, it is alkaline.
The more below or above 7 a solution is, the more acidic or alkaline it is. The scale is not linear—a drop from pH 8.2 to 8.1 indicates a 30 percent increase in acidity, or concentration of hydrogen ions; a drop from 8.1 to 7.9 indicates a 150 percent increase in acidity. Bottom line: Small-sounding changes in ocean pH are actually quite large and definitely in the direction of becoming less alkaline, which is the same as becoming more acidic.
If you think about it, we use descriptive words like this all the time. A person who stands 5’5” tall and weighs 300 pounds isn’t thin. If he loses 100 pounds, he still won’t be thin, but he will be thinner than he was before he went on the diet. (And we are more likely to comment that he’s looking trimmer than to say he’s not as fat as he used to be.)
The half-life of the carbon-14 isotope is used in dating fossils in a process called radiocarbon dating.
hope this is adequate.
Answer:
Particles of matter possess energy called kinetic energy.
Solid cannot be compressed, but gases are highly compressible.
The Kinetic energy of molecules of gases is very large & solids the least.
On heating a sublimable liquid, the molecules break free & escape from the surface of the solid directly into vapour.
Particles of matter move more rapidly on the application of heat
Answer:
the molecular formula of Ozone is O_3.
